hi i currently can't send text messages. (iphone4) i'll be able to compose a new message and press send. it will load to almost the very end before stopping and it just says "sending..." and it just stays like that.

iMessage works perfectly fine but then again that's with wifi.
I havent been recieving any texts either. I got some friends to text me to see if i would recieve it, and i didn't.
Please help.

I've tried turning on and off my phone and whatnot already with no results.

Im getting "Connection problem or invalid MMI" when I try to update 

In the phone settings under SMSC the field is blank but when I try to udate manually, it says update error. Any suggestions? 

 

Ive rebooted, verifed APN, removed sim added back... At a loss here.
